Shakespeare arrives

[Philippa Ballantine]

Today Chasing the Bard is on podiobooks and I am doing a little happy dance. It's good to be in the fold again and I'm going to be onto this ning thing a bit more. CTB has been doing so much better than I thought, and despite the hard work I am enjoying the production side of it. So much so, that I have almost convinced myself once CTB is done to do my New Zealand fantasy novels as podiobooks too- you know the ones the NYC publishing houses say no America audience would be interested in. With my dander up, I want to prove them wrong. Feel like Peter Jackson, Flight of the Concords and a kiwi Bones coming up on the Enterprise are proving plenty to the world about New Zealanders, and I need to get a piece (albeit a very small one) of that action.

OOOoooo!!

MORE great works coming from the other side of the IDL. Gotta LOVE it. :)

It would be good to see ya hanging out here, Pip.

Hey, I would never spoil the fun.

Hmmmm I remember selling you a book last year, so I think you know the answer to that one PG. We'll arm wrestle for those top spots =)

You are the woman we all love, Ms. Ballantine. I'm so happy for your successes thus far (even though I growl once or twice a week when I see you up above me on the iTunes Top Daily podcasts list ;-) ). As long as you need a King of the Fey, I'm your man! ... Auberon does appear in all your books, right? Please?

[Philippa Ballantine]

Appreciate it Jack. I have to think how I am going to approach my work schedule. I may put Whispers at the Edge on hiatus, or I may indenture people like yourself. Oh yeah, and need to edit the book a bit more!

There are those of us that want to help you know... Let me know what I can do. I have been known to create a few sound scapes... I am a fair producer...
